Frito Lay Giveaway

– Contest Closed – Congrats to Laurie!

Frito Lay contacted me with not only the tasty recipe you just read, but also a few other healthy tips for summer BBQ season so we don’t pack on the pounds. You can check out their site to find out more about their brands, healthy snacking, and even where the potatoes were grown for your chips. Be sure to check out their recipe page to where you can find even more great dip recipes. Vegetable and bean dips are a great way to integrate veggies into your diet. With just 3 ingredients, Frito Lay corn chips are a perfect accompaniment to those dips.

Sabra Hummus and Tostitios Salsa are also great with Frito corn chips and Tostitos tortilla chips.

At cookouts, use whole grain breads for hamburger and hot dog rolls.

You can also use SunChips multi-grain snacks that have 18 grams of grains in every once serving.

The most important tip to summer BBQ season – downsize your dish. Swap that 12 inch dish for a 10 inch dish, and you’ll have less space to pile up the calories. Aim to fill your plate half with veggies, a quarter with grains, and a quarter with lean proteins.

Here is another bonus recipe from Frito Lay perfect for Tostitos Scoops:
